Maid, Little Lucky Wife

Chapter 221 Arriving at the Border

After traveling day and night, the prince and the prince finally arrived at the border, and were greeted by General Li and a group of lieutenants.

"Welcome Your Royal Highness!"

General Li took the lead in saluting, followed by more than a dozen people who knelt down one after another.

The prince quickly stepped forward and helped him up personally, "Old General Li, there's no need to do this. Thank you for your hard work!"

General Li has white hair and beard, piercing eyes, and is wearing a silver armor.

Old General Li took advantage of the situation and said, "Your Highness, let's go into the tent and rest for a day. Tomorrow I will take the prince to familiarize himself with the environment and explain the situation."

The prince immediately refused, "General, my father sent me here to assist you. Don't be tired along the way. Let's go directly to discuss the matter!"

Old General Li also had a bold temper and immediately led the people in.

The prince brought over several imperial doctors and asked them to assist the doctors in starting to treat the soldiers.

The prince has been following the prince, and General Li thought he was a bodyguard.

In order not to be taken seriously, the prince did not introduce his identity.

When we arrived at the camp, there was the main camp tent with a large sand table inside.

The surrounding terrain environment and the enemy's troop layout detected by the scouts.

"Here...here, there are 5000 and 2000 enemy troops respectively. As the vanguard of the enemy troops, they are blocking the exit of the border pass."

General Li pointed at two hills.

"This place is easy to defend but difficult to attack. When the enemy comes, we must first call the formation in front of us. When we are ready to fight, the enemy will retreat. Six out of ten times it is a feint attack."

"When we are tired of responding and relax, a group of cavalry will suddenly appear from behind the enemy, killing our soldiers and catching them off guard."

A young lieutenant next to him said, "Once we send out troops and attack here, the enemy will attack from three sides and trap our soldiers in this valley, making it difficult to advance or retreat."

The prince glanced at the other party curiously. Anyone who could speak out at this time must have the right to speak. For such a young man to be accepted as a deputy general by General Li, he must be outstanding.

The prince raised his hands and asked, "This young general is..."

General Li said with a smile, "This is my adopted son. He has made great achievements in leading troops."

When the prince heard this, he said: "Nice to meet you!"

Since he was valued by General Li, he naturally couldn't say anything. If he had talent, he wouldn't mind promoting him.

The prince then continued to discuss the current situation with everyone.

After talking about things, it was already time for dinner, and the prince and the generals were together.

These people didn't even relax for a moment while eating dinner, and had a few discussions from time to time.

The situation was tense, the prince did not suggest drinking, and no one else would take the initiative to bring it up.

The prince was silent a lot along the way and didn't speak much. This was the result of discussions between him and the prince.

No one knows what the situation at the border is, whether there is any hostility towards them, or whether there are spies from other countries, so it is best to be careful.

Moreover, the Crown Prince only had a few exposures to the matters on the battlefield in military books, and even the Crown Prince had only a partial understanding of them. Therefore, it was better to talk less and read more. After all, this was a rare learning opportunity.

After resting for a night, the prince and the prince both put on armor, which was the same color as the lieutenants, so it was not eye-catching.

Only General Li and the deputy general knew the identity of the prince. The other sergeants only knew that this man was an official of the imperial court.

After the prince and prince washed up, they went out and saw General Li who happened to be passing by.

The prince and the prince secretly looked at each other.

General Li glanced at the two of them unexpectedly, smiled and said, "The prince is awake? Do you want to have breakfast together?"

The prince smiled kindly, "Okay, let's come together!"

The prince knew in his heart that this person did not come here by chance, but on purpose. He just didn't know what his purpose was.

The prince brought not much food, mainly medicinal materials. At this time, the entire border was still short of food.

General Li was considerate of the soldiers and insisted on eating the same food as the soldiers. Naturally, the prince and the prince would not do anything special.

The prince listened carefully to everyone's explanation to the soldiers alone. War has always relied on courage, wisdom and strength, and relying only on individualism will not work.

The sergeants are practicing except for eating and sleeping time.

Because it was a border crossing, although there were not many wars, there were constant frictions. The prince could clearly feel the iron-blooded killing intent in these sergeants.

Before noon, the military camp was suddenly broken by the sound of trumpets, three short and one long, indicating that the enemy was invading.

Soldiers in heavy armor, holding spears and shields, stood uniformly in the martial arts arena, looking at the general above quietly, with murderous intent spreading, as if their heartbeats were all in one.

The heavy war drums beat, and everyone's hearts slowly gathered together. At this time, the sergeants were like sharp blades, as if they were ready to go to the battlefield at any time.

The air was particularly quiet at this time. General Li looked at every sergeant present with firm eyes, scanning their young faces.

"My sons, the enemy is attacking, and behind us is our home. What should we do?"

The sound rang like a bell in the martial arts arena.

"kill!"

"kill!"

"Okay, follow me to fight, General!"

General Li waved his hand, and the sergeants exited the barracks in an orderly manner and headed towards the city wall like a tide.

General Li came to the prince and said, "Your Highness, you..."

The prince waved the machete in his hand, "I will kill the enemy with you!"

Old General Li unexpectedly looked into his eyes and found that there was no fear at all, only murderous intent.

Old General Li patted his shoulder appreciatively and smiled with relief, "Your Highness is kind-hearted, but don't be greedy for credit. Your identity is too important."

The prince nodded seriously, "Yes, general, I understand."

The prince's answer was unusually straightforward.

Old General Li particularly likes his character. This future prince is not bad, not bad.

"All officers and men must obey the order and protect the prince!"

"Yes, General!"

The prince is going to the battlefield, but he still needs to be protected.

In General Li's view, the prince was just passionate. Although he had some skills, they were not enough to save his life.

The prince did not refuse. After all, it was his first time on the battlefield. He should listen to General Li.

Everyone came to the city wall, and the two armies outside the city wall were already facing each other. It was like two torrents colliding together. From the initial separation, to the later melee.

The soldiers waved their long hairs, the sound of shields clashing was deafening, arrows flew in the air, and from time to time, war horses fell to the ground and could no longer stand up.

Some soldiers weighed many arrows, but they were still brave and fearless, their eyes full of firmness and determination.

On the battlefield, there was an obvious center point, where several lieutenants were fighting with the opponent's generals.

One of the generals was riding a war horse, waving the spear in his hand, his eyes as sharp as an eagle, and kicked the horse in the belly. The war horse neighed and rushed towards the enemy.

The spear and the long knife collided together. The opponent was out of strength and took a few steps back. The horse underneath him knelt on the ground.

The spear pierces the opponent's body.
